Inculturation

“Inculturation” is nothing but allowing heathens (non-Christians) to follow their culture without any change, but declare that “Jesus”: or “Christ” or “Jesus Christ” has been their hidden God in the culture. For this purpose, the Christians come to India, live with others, follow their culture and pretend as Hindus outside, but Christians inside. They research into Indian / Hindu scriptures, find out some similarities between Indian and Christian traditions and try to misinterpret that India owes to Christianity for such similarity found. From Roberto de Nobili onwards, such types of fraudulent activities have been carried on. After much opposition, internal quarrels, and consequent reconciliation, it appears that again after 2001, their activities have bee increased tremendously. Thus, the implications are studied here in the Indian context.
